yeah it was wheat who actually said it and then quickly switched it out.

Idra and Machine looked like a cute couple there.

It is always an exquisite pleasure to experience the amiable discourse between the hosts and the impeccably mannered Goatlust.

They were both maxed, but MC had a lot more army value. And Idra did have 9 or 10 corruptors floating around.
Idra was up two bases but failed to convert that to any reasonable advantage.
-- Subpar unit composition. Hydra/Corruptor/Infestors vs Blink Stalker/DT -- Worse tech. No Hive tech -- Upgrades were pretty even. 3/0 vs 2/2. -- Army value/size was in MC's favour. -- Failure to remax/stall out for remax -- Failure to defend harass -- Failure to micro infestors/overseers/corruptors.
It was not "easy" for MC to come back. Idra played a very terrible game and pretty much deserved to lose that.

omg djwheat so awesome! I'm glad I'm not the only one who loves the monster nitrous drinks, they're so delicious! drinking a "black ice" one now, it's really good. As unhealthy as it is I've always been drinking a monster before going to the gym.

This was the first show I've gotten to watch.. holy shit Geoff is funny!
DJWheat: "Idra, do you prefer jelly or jam?" Idra: "I prefer jam." Geoff: "Don't know the difference."

there is no difference between jam and jelly right?

The difference between jelly and jam is that you can't jelly your cock down a girls throat.

There is no better unit composition than hydra/infestor vs blink stalkers unless you throw some zerglings in.
Hive tech was pointless. MC was on T1 tech essentially, besides the 3-0 upgrade, but that's trivial
2-2 is far better than 3-0 in a hydra vs stalker scenario
IdrA was maxed, MC was like 170-180, army values were similar.
He remaxed, but the stalkers were pushing closer and picking off small groups of units before they could be balled again
The harass didn't matter, he lost his whole hydra infestor army and so many stalkers were left over that mc was going to push into his production and hatcheries.
He got fungals off, his overseer got sniped, and corruption was insignificant with only 7 corruptors.

first time viewing, and I love it. Especially since I can't have iNcontrol on SotG now lol.

I rang up today. Got through.
I was the guy who corrected Geoff about the burrow hotkey and asked "Which 2 units for each race would you bring back from BW?"
:D Sorry if you guys didn't understand me. In all honesty, I was taken back that I was on it and my heart was pounding like a racehorse galloping down a field.

he lost because he had 7 corruptors against no air units and let 4 dts kill his entire army without getting an overseer or fungaling and killing them. if he hadn't done these things he would have won that engagement (and the game ) EASILY, i don't really see how this can even be a point of discussion.
it would be like a protoss player running out into the middle of the map and losing a bunch of units to 4 cloaked banshees because he didn't make an observer and then saying pvt is unfair because terrans can make a comeback if they do that

The main difference is that jam has an extra technical ingredient in it, though the end result is that jelly is closer to syrup and jam is closer to peanut butter.

And also 4 DTs running around unhindered through the mass of hydras. Those didn't hurt either. A couple of overseers and a better decision on where to engage would have made the biggest difference. I don't think Idra's infestors were able to reach MC's stalkers with FG.
Stalkers with Blink are not "essentially" T1, Blink is a serious upgrade that steps them up into T2 (assuming Toss even has tiers).

I strongly agree. Balance has nothing to do with why Idra lost.

Jam is a paste. (picture... tomato sauce)

So yes, there is a difference.
